A coin will decide Jets or Giants play first game in new stadium

The new Meadowlands Stadium is ready to hold the first regular-season game of the 2010 season, but the NFL has not decided which team of the two in the same New York City to play that game in that new stadium. They will have the idea after tossing a coin in a few days.

According to an announcement on the website of the New York Jets, they will flip a coin with the Giants to determine which team will host the first regular-season game at their new 82,500-seat, $1.6 billion stadium this season. Both teams have expressed to the NFL their desire to play the opening game there, so it’s a hard decision to make but there is a simple way to solve it: coin toss.

The competition for the first use of the new stadium will possibly the only competition between to the two New York teams as it’s scheduled that the teams do not play each other in the regular season this year, so New York NFL fans will not have to decide which team’s NFL jerseys to put on anytime when there is a game involving a New York team.

Broncos are open to possible return of WR Marshall

According to the Denver Broncos Coach Josh McDaniels, who benched wide receiver Brandon Marshall and tight end Tony Scheffler at the end of 2009 season, the Broncos will not rule out both Marshall and Scheffler wearing back Broncos jerseys for 2010 season.

“They played an important role on our team this year,” McDaniels said. “I don’t see how that has to change. Obviously there are some things that will go into this going forward. There’s no question in my mind that it could happen.”

McDaniel said he had not had any discussion with Marshall about his career future, but the receiver has recently said that he was willing to return to Denver for 2010 season but also remains open to offers from other teams. McDaniels did say that there would be a conversation with agents and players in near future.
